MPC 1:20 AMX Box Stock

[Porscheman]

I wasn't happy when I picked this up and found out the proper stripes weren't included. So I went to Google Images and saw this two tone, stripes weren't needed. I painted it Testors big bad blue lacquer and Tamiya's gloss black two tone. 3 coats of Testors wet look clear for top coat and Tamiya clear blue for the window tint. The interior was done in Tamiya semi-gloss black. This is a nice kit with the exception to the tires, which seem a little big.

Let me know what you think.

Al that is superb , I have this kit and its good to see it built up and pics of the engine at all please ?. Love the color and the black two tone great idea.

[MrObsessive]

IIRC, AMC called that paint job a "shadow treatment" which was for 1970 only. I think it looks nicer than the stock stripes, and yours is lookin' good!

Man, sharp model Al. Great choice in the Big Bad Blue. Sweet paint and pictures....

I admit, the body style doesn't really do much for me, but I can easily see it's a fine build.

The colour scheme works well.
